Hey guys. I just picked up a 01 GS300, L-Tuned edition. Iam wondering what coilover is the best as far as ride quality and quality goes for the $ for these cars. Any other tips would be great too, thanks!

Welcome, nice pick up, for coilovers for a nice smooth ride go with Tein CS, but don't expect to slam your car with these though

Welcome to CL Chris!

Based on multiple recommendations from CL members I put Tein CS on my 99 GS300. After strut towers bars I'm VERY pleased with the ride.
